Influence of sampling accuracy on augmented reality for laparoscopic image-guided surgery.

Conclusions: AR showed an increase in both TRE and FRE throughout the experimental studies, proving that AR is not robust to the sampling accuracy of the targets used to compute image-to-patient registration. Moreover, an influence of the size of the volume to be register was observed. Hence, it is advisable to reduce both errors due to annotations and the size of registration volumes, which can cause large errors in AR systems. PMID: 32134342 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
